July 3, just before quarantine, County Cork, Ireland

ALL CLEAR from the ship’s doctor as of this afternoon for everything except the children’s center and the pools!! We will celebrate the 4th of July by visiting the Glendalough Ruins and the countryside near Dublin, Ireland. THANK YOU for your positive thoughts and energy. There was no improvement at all with the rash this morning but a dramatic turnaround this afternoon, otherwise we would have had to face Day #2 of quarantine.

 

This has been one of the longest and most stressful days of our family’s life although Barracuda had a fantastic time with movies, books and games. For a while my husband & I were discussing things with the doctor that highlighted stark differences between the United States’ and Europe’s health care systems, public health departments and medical data security that I will probably guest blog about later. An assignment I created last year for my MSIS eerily foreshadowed a situation similar to what we just went though, and to be quite honest it’s freaking me out.
